Aérospatiale was a French aerospace manufacturer that primarily built both civilian and military aircraft and rockets.
The company was created in 1970 from the state-owned companies Sud Aviation, Nord Aviation and Société d'études et de réalisation d'engins balistiques (SÉREB).
In 1992, DaimlerBenz Aerospace AG (DASA) and Aérospatiale combined their helicopter divisions to form the Eurocopter Group.
In 1999, Aérospatiale merged with Matra Haute Technologie to form the Aérospatiale-Matra company. This division manufactures missiles as part of the MBDA consortium.
On July 10, 2000, Aérospatiale-Matra merged with other European companies to form EADS.
